B. Monthly Reconciliation of Premium and Losses. Within five (5) days after each monthly installment payment of premium is received by the Company under the Policies, the Company will issue to the Reinsurer a premium reconciliation statement reconciling such premium payment with (i) Items 2-10 above and, at the Company's discretion, (ii) any outstanding amounts owed by the Reinsurer to the Company for Losses Paid, Loss Expenses Paid, and Paid Loss Deposit Fund adjustments, if any. If the result of any such reconciliation is that the Reinsurer owes money to the Company, the Reinsurer will pay the amount so owed within five (5) days after the date of the reconciliation statement. If the result of any such reconciliation is that the Company owes money to the Reinsurer, the Company will pay the Reinsurer the amount so owed at the time the premium reconciliation statement is issued.
*
Upon termination of the Policies, the earned premium will be computed in accordance with the applicable rules, rates, rating plans, premiums and minimum premiums, based on the actual amounts payable under Items 2, 5, 6 and 7 above. The amount of Premium Taxes shown in Item 7 above is adjustable due to audit and due to changes in any applicable state laws or regulations (including, but not limited to, retroactive assessments). Amounts payable by the Company under Items 6 and 7 will be adjusted further in accordance with Article VII. If the earned premium as so determined is different from the estimated Gross Premiums Written (Item 1 above), all prior monthly reconciliations of premium will be recalculated utilizing the actual earned premium. If the recalculation of the reconciliations indicates that the Reinsurer owes money to the Company, the Reinsurer will pay that money within five (5) days after receipt of the Company's statement therefor. If the recalculation indicates that the Company owes money to the Reinsurer, the Company will pay the Reinsurer the amount so owed at the time such statement is issued.

statutory successor, immediately on demand with reasonable provision for verification, except as provided by Section 4118 (a) of the New York Insurance Law or except:
(1) where the Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Company, and
